 | Comment #1 by wermax Friday, March 04, 2011 @ 01:05:02 PM man this sounds fun... sucks that I already got rid of the game |
 | Comment #2 by BloodyPizza Friday, March 04, 2011 @ 01:57:46 PM That does suck. Looks like you'll have to pick the game up again. |
 | Comment #3 by Smithman117 Sunday, March 06, 2011 @ 11:08:18 AM So what's a thirsty harlequin? |
 | Comment #4 by Smackerly21392 Tuesday, March 08, 2011 @ 12:51:02 PM The harlequins will come at you and want to fight. Switch to your fists and beat them up. A notification will come up saying how many out of the five you have beaten up. I killed my first harlequin on accident haha |
 | Comment #5 by LeeJ2512 Tuesday, March 08, 2011 @ 05:03:04 PM i THINK they attack u because u put them off lol they only attack u after u make them fall over from the handstand :S not my fault if theyre shit |
 | Comment #6 by branticus53 Tuesday, March 08, 2011 @ 06:21:42 PM where do i find them |
 | Comment #7 by Tilb Town Rufus Tuesday, March 08, 2011 @ 07:07:49 PM I have found one so far, he was a few clicks east of the bridge that leads to the Vaticano district, in an area where on the map there's (as best as I can describe it) a roundabout in the middle of it, northwest of the Sant' Antonio dei Portoghesi. As to the location of the others? I haven't the slightest clue. |
| Comment #8 by Smackerly21392 Tuesday, March 08, 2011 @ 07:18:34 PM Does anyone know if there is a set amount? |
 | Comment #9 by boomboy88 Tuesday, March 08, 2011 @ 08:09:06 PM crud i drowned my 4th harlequin by kicking over and over again. |
 | Comment #10 by zippy74656a Wednesday, March 09, 2011 @ 01:13:14 AM i've found four out of five so far, they all seem to be near the river, guess thats why they're "thirsty" |
| Comment #11 by zippy74656a Wednesday, March 09, 2011 @ 01:14:30 AM i've found four out of five so far, they all seem to be near the river, guess thats why they're "thirsty" |
 | Comment #12 by Sundered Wednesday, March 09, 2011 @ 02:49:51 AM From what I've found 4 of the Harlequin's are in the centro district near the river on the west side of the map (1 is under a bridge near Ezio's hideout that was a pain to find) just stick to following the river and you should find those 4, I would start at the very northern-most part of the river and make my way down. The last one is in the Campagna district near a house overlooking a Borgia tower on an island, a little bit east of the Barracks. This is where they all were for me, I'm not sure if spots are random or not (I seriously doubt it). Hope this was helpful! |
| Comment #13 by Sundered Wednesday, March 09, 2011 @ 02:52:46 AM ** I meant to say to the west of the Barracks is where you will find the final harlequin, sorry for any confustion. ** WEST not east ** |

 | Comment #19 by Tiny x AssAssin Thursday, March 10, 2011 @ 02:16:40 PM This is the best walkthrough for finding the clowns http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/showpost.php?p=4058421&postcount=47 remember if the clowns dont show up when you go there leave the area and come back |
 | Comment #20 by DanielH Thursday, March 10, 2011 @ 11:55:12 PM 4 are in Centro District and 1 is in Campagna District. I. The First Harlequin is in Centro District North and a bit west beside the river. He is between the Highest Doctor symbol on the map and the second Highest Tunnel Entrance. He is on some stairs going into the water. II. The Second Harlequin is in Centro District North West beside the river again. He is to the East of the Bridge that goes to Vanticao District. Starting from the beginning of the bridge, if you use your map and go along the river East you will see a shaded area with a lighter circle in the middle. Go North of that circle and you will see a set of double stairs. He is on those stairs. III. The Third Harlequin is in Centro District West beside the river. Go to ROSA IN FIORE and go directly west from there. He i |
| Comment #21 by DanielH Thursday, March 10, 2011 @ 11:57:49 PM IV. The Fourth Harlequin is in Centro District South East under a bridge beside the river. Go to Ezio's Hideout and go DIRECTLY south of it. On your map you should see a Bridge that has lines going across it. He is under that bridge on the left side. V. The Fifth and Last Harlequin is in Campagna District beside the Borgia Tower (Or Assassin's Tower) that is surrounded by water and cliffs. If you use your map and go West slightly from the Borgia/Assassin's Tower and then go slightly North, you will see a small rectangle that represents a small building. Go there and the Harlequin is behind the Small building along the edge of the cliff. |
 | Comment #22 by Bad Rumors Friday, March 11, 2011 @ 12:55:06 AM Cant find A single one! |
 | Comment #23 by collin232 Friday, March 11, 2011 @ 02:39:46 PM Video please anyone? I can't find any of them |
 | Comment #24 by cameeu Saturday, March 12, 2011 @ 06:16:10 AM the fifth Harlequin only comes out at night time. there will be a couple standing by the tree on the edge of the cliff, the Harlequin will appear next to them. If he doesn't appear you'll have to go further away and come back for the NPC's to reload. there's probably a video for this achievement on youtube by now. |
 | Comment #25 by Manowarrior Sunday, March 13, 2011 @ 11:17:05 AM @#23 Here's a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=brK2PGyxJK4 It is random when they are there and not, so keep at it and you'll get it. I'll be working on this one today. |
 | Comment #26 by dan_musashi Sunday, March 13, 2011 @ 05:33:17 PM Trying it today. |
 | Comment #27 by Katarn Tuesday, March 15, 2011 @ 06:46:26 PM 1 and 5 won't show up |
 | Comment #28 by pr1nyc1 Thursday, March 17, 2011 @ 12:30:42 PM Yea #1 is being a pain. |
| Comment #29 by pr1nyc1 Thursday, March 17, 2011 @ 12:34:08 PM I found #1 right after i posted my previos message. If you look to the left, there should be a red and black ship. If you walk toward the ship, there should be a painting there right before the staircase. At that staircase, that's where i found the quin. |
 | Comment #30 by Teh Mors Sunday, March 20, 2011 @ 06:58:27 PM what do you do after you've beaten up all five and the achievement doesn't unlock? after i found the fifth and beat him up, my screen read "5 of 5 harlequins beaten up", but the achievement is still locked. i've returned to the five locations, but none are there. i've checked each spot at least 3 times now, both day and night - no harlequins. any ideas?? i'm frustrated... |
| Comment #31 by Teh Mors Sunday, March 20, 2011 @ 07:29:26 PM just checked the five spots a few more times again, still no luck... |
 | Comment #32 by FlexibleToad Monday, March 21, 2011 @ 01:42:03 PM why are these harlequins in the game? they don't really fit the story, do they? |
 | Comment #33 by Tomsta666 Wednesday, March 23, 2011 @ 07:02:57 AM Im starting to think this achievement is bugged. I've got 4/5, the last one I need is under a bridge near the hideout. I accidentally killed him the first time, but he won't respawn. Another one I killed respawned no problem. But this one WILL NOT! and it's PISSING ME RIGHT OFF! |
 | Comment #34 by vaderag Sunday, March 27, 2011 @ 08:48:18 AM Annoyingly, this harlequin isn't appearing for me... have gone through some tunnels etc, but wont show |
 | Comment #35 by RedHotMasters Tuesday, April 05, 2011 @ 03:28:58 PM and what if i kill one of the harlquins?? |
 | Comment #36 by Bustabus11 Saturday, April 16, 2011 @ 09:55:10 AM @25 Thanks for the video. Took awhile for #4 to show up, but finally got it. |
 | Comment #37 by slayer2121 Tuesday, April 19, 2011 @ 09:37:28 PM Thank you so much sundered, post number 12 and 13. That helped so much. If anyone else needs help finding these, this is the way to go. |
 | Comment #38 by SudnDeath Sunday, April 24, 2011 @ 11:39:50 AM Thanks |
 | Comment #39 by mjc509 Friday, May 13, 2011 @ 08:46:18 PM @ #30 & #31 This is a DLC achievement, so you need to have downloaded the Da Vinci Disappearence DLC in order to get the achievement. |
 | Comment #40 by xuxa29 Sunday, May 15, 2011 @ 01:04:14 PM this is pointless |
| Comment #41 by xuxa29 Sunday, May 15, 2011 @ 01:51:40 PM and glichy |
 | Comment #42 by MATH3W MAGNUM77 Thursday, May 19, 2011 @ 04:42:10 PM i go over to the spot the last one is.. but he never appears.. i did kill the bastard the first time i saw him.. is it a glitch.. or will he respawn in the other harlequin spots?? |
 | Comment #43 by thecheeseblewup Sunday, June 05, 2011 @ 08:56:58 PM i picked up a guards weapon and sheathed it then when i went with my fists to beat up my first one I still had the weapon and it was invisible and now the harlequin won't respawn |
 | Comment #44 by Atilla the Fun Friday, June 10, 2011 @ 08:58:25 PM stupid clowns, can't get the first one to show up. gonna take out my frustrations on him when he shows up. |
 | Comment #45 by ButtahNBred Saturday, June 11, 2011 @ 01:51:35 PM Hahaha. I was bewildered when I saw the harlequin appear in the same spot. Then I realized that killing then is not equivalent to beating them up. :-X Well, I'm dumb. |
 | Comment #46 by SteeeveDaPirate Thursday, June 16, 2011 @ 12:39:39 AM hahahahahahahah this achivement was hilarious. so much fun :) |
 | Comment #47 by TheSplitter96 Saturday, June 18, 2011 @ 11:02:16 PM Here's some useful tips. When you're near the clowns get them to attach you and then start walking away from the hazards they WILL follow you. Then taunt them. This makes them come after you and you can press X which will cause a counter attack and since you are using your hands it wont kill them. Finnaly, if they don't show up go around a building or sometimes doing a 360 will make them spawn. Hope this helps! |
 | Comment #48 by philiplehmann1 Monday, July 04, 2011 @ 05:44:45 AM are there only 5 haliqins in the game?? lol there are lots of them in ac2 ? :P |
 | Comment #49 by Joelly Thursday, July 07, 2011 @ 11:41:57 AM surprisingly, doing a 360 works.. I only needed to beat up the harlequin in campagna (near to Borgia/Assassin tower). I had killed him before and since then he hadnt shown. It turned to night, the couple showed up but no harlequin, i ran 10m, 360 and the harlequin was doing his tricks, beat him up, 30G. -*NOT A GLITCHED ACHIEVEMENT*- |
 | Comment #50 by Kyy Da Legend Thursday, July 14, 2011 @ 09:44:39 AM I went to all of the 5 locations, i have the DLC, and they haven't shown up yet I haven't beaten the DLC yet, as i just got it, but figured I'd kill time by getting this achievement, is there a certain point when they show up, or are they there right from the start? |
| Comment #51 by DEADHEAD60K Sunday, July 17, 2011 @ 06:07:29 PM i just beat up my harlequin lol |
 | Comment #52 by Dorney Tuesday, July 19, 2011 @ 10:22:14 AM If you are struggling with this is because some of the Joker people only come out at night. |
| Comment #53 by Thorin22 Thursday, July 21, 2011 @ 02:29:10 PM thx all this help a lot! |
 | Comment #54 by xKRAIZEEMANx Thursday, July 21, 2011 @ 04:42:22 PM @ #49 Thanks, the 360 method worked, I knocked one into the water, and ran a little bit...did a 360, turned around, and there he was. |
 | Comment #55 by DragonCrusaderV Friday, August 05, 2011 @ 07:53:03 PM just got the achievement, i kill the last harlequin by accident, then it turn night, the person under the tree is there but the harlequin is not, so i run about 10 m do a 360 and the harlequin shows up and 30g is added to my g points, so yea, #49 trick works. Poor harlequin though, he and the hellequin is my fav character |
 | Comment #56 by BRG TANK53 Sunday, August 07, 2011 @ 10:46:58 AM lol just got it using a video on youtube but apparently 3 of mine were not showing up. I think it was because i was using the tunnels to get the one near the barracks, the hideout and whorehouse. But then i started just running to them and of course they all showed up |
 | Comment #57 by Ad Doom Sunday, October 02, 2011 @ 09:59:18 AM its pretty annoying that sometimes they aren't there. got one left, not sure which one it is though lol |
 | Comment #58 by Simulacrum1990 Tuesday, October 04, 2011 @ 02:19:35 AM Very easy Achievement... to much GS imho :D Guide: http://goo.gl/MY35N |
 | Comment #59 by Marc Pilkington Wednesday, October 19, 2011 @ 03:21:10 PM The last one I think I need is NOT showing up whatsoever. I've tried absolutely everything, gone in both the day and night and nothing! I swear I'm looking in the right location as I've got the other 4...urgh! Any help? |
| Comment #60 by DiamonCalves Friday, November 04, 2011 @ 03:14:20 PM Yes |

 | Comment #62 by M0N0P0LY92 Monday, January 16, 2012 @ 12:18:27 AM Yay! got the achievement :D Thanks #20-21 Your guide was easy to read :) |
 | Comment #63 by metallfan Tuesday, February 21, 2012 @ 05:03:47 PM Having the same problem with the fifth, not showing up at all! tried both times of day and doing the 10m then 360, still nothing. Anyone have any tips? |
| Comment #64 by Ramen92 Wednesday, March 07, 2012 @ 09:24:05 PM So Easiest way to do this (and yes this is cheap) is to walk up to them throw your smoke bomb down and punch them. This will lead to a one hit knock out. Also they will respawn after you throw them in the water, and if they dont show up just walk around and eventually they respawn |
 | Comment #65 by esoterikos Friday, March 09, 2012 @ 05:58:59 PM I know this is late for most people, but if you can't find a harlequin, just throw money around where they should be. They run for it the same as everyone else, but they're dressed as Harly Quinn. |
 | Comment #66 by ttdrevan Sunday, April 08, 2012 @ 12:55:17 PM Awesome achievement and yeah I killed one accidently, did a tunnel journey, came back, did 360 and he spawned right behind me :D |
 | Comment #67 by jimmyfalzone Wednesday, June 13, 2012 @ 01:54:15 AM post |
 | Comment #68 by Planet Chuck Tuesday, July 31, 2012 @ 10:50:40 PM None of them have to be done at night. I did all of mine in the day time. Some people may have the same problem I did with the last one. He isnt actually on the island with the Assassin tower. He is across the river, on a cliff, standing by a small building. He isn't really even close to the water. |
 | Comment #69 by Zauce Industries Thursday, August 02, 2012 @ 06:15:34 PM Only one I had trouble with was the last one. I ran a few meters away, killed a few guards and came back and it was doing its handstand stuff behind the house! |
 | Comment #70 by kabukininja Saturday, August 18, 2012 @ 07:25:45 AM They show up yellow in eagle vision if that helps anyone |
| Comment #71 by Waity1762 Wednesday, September 19, 2012 @ 02:56:03 PM I found the easiest way to beat up the harlequins is to just counter them, so hold RT and press X when they attack :) avoids knocking them into the water etc by accident, just make sure you press down on the D-Pad first so you have your fists 'equipped.' |
 | Comment #72 by Jnutter819 Saturday, October 13, 2012 @ 09:28:19 PM First one I found, I hit down on the D-pad, then x. Unfortunately, I had changed down to my crossbow. |
 | Comment #73 by Mox1 Wednesday, October 24, 2012 @ 11:12:19 AM I found 3 near the river, but seem unable to find anymore. Does anybody know any non-rivery locations? |
 | Comment #74 by Christian21J Thursday, October 25, 2012 @ 03:52:24 PM Cool chevo |
 | Comment #75 by sjo1985 Thursday, June 13, 2013 @ 07:47:04 AM lol |
